I've used an anodised and bi-metal example as the photos were to hand.

Thanks Stephen - a particularly nice backing to the Lincolnshire Regt you have there.

With regards to the Royal Anglian Regt, the vast majority I have display no seeding to the scroll, however those with sliders marked FIRMIN LONDON and MARPLES & BEASLEY have seeding on the 'Royal Anglian' scroll. Additionally a Firmin & Sons PLC issue clear plastic bag (dated 01/07/05) marked for and containing a Royal Anglian badge also displays seeding on its scroll. The badge slider is marked with the later 'fatter' FIRMIN' mark.

Norfolk man - Hope this helps.

Regards all

Bess
